Reopened from #1789 (PR to master)

https://github.com/componently-com/awesome-building-blocks-for-web-apps

Standalone features to be integrated into web applications. It should be included because it's awesome not having to code the same functionality over and over again.

I feel like the list is too much of an ad for Componently right now. It's fine to link to Componently of course, but I think it should be made clear what it is. For example, I don't think the repo link should be to Componently as it's not the website for the list itself.

The descriptions for items needs more work. It's not good enough that it's just copy-pasted from a project's repo. Many projects have bad descriptions/taglines. I saw both typos and titlecased descriptions just from a quick look. Descriptions should describe what it is and not be generic marketing taglines.

Some examples of not useful descriptions:

  • Grow your business with honest marketing.
  • Ship faster and prove value with less risk.

And remove words like easy/simple/beautiful. They are overused words.

Thanks for the feedback. Removed the link from the repo description, will review item descriptions.

@sindresorhus The descriptions are now also updated to be more helpful. Anything else you would change? :)

componently.com is a marketplace where developers can search, compare and integrate web application building blocks.

This still feels like an ad. Try to make it more relevant. Something like this:

By the way, if you like web building blocks, you'll love componently.com, which [(how it solves the problem of building blocks) blah blah...].


Curated list of standalone features to be integrated into web applications.

I'd like to see a more verbose description that describes why building blocks (components) are awesome and what problem they solve.

Both very good points! I've edited the list around it :)
